I’ve begun thinking of 257 Wby as a “reloading only” proposition for this reason. You’d have to be mad…or rolling in it.

$7 per shot! I can't believe that. I think I will just keep the ammo because I would be ashamed to list it for that.
I am always looking for factory wood stocks!

GreenAcres is a whore,everything they sell is significantly overpriced. Just look on ammoseek. 140 a box for Hornady weatherby ammo GTFO and not suprised.

Actually $130 per box is what the other places were but it wasn't the same load. https://ammoseek.com/ammo/257-weatherby-magnum

What are you looking to sell? I’m always interested in .257 ammo. I’ve paid around $79-$89 a box recently

3 years ago my LGS got some kinda deal because they had cases of the stuff in the brand new boxes- 257 Weatherby Select Plus in 115 Nosler Ballitic tip. 40 bucks out the door. I tried some in my 700 CDL SF. Shot fantastic. Beat the reloads I bought. I went back and got 4 more boxes. They still had tons of it. Guess I should have bought a case!

Any Weatherby caliber exclusive to Weatherby (240, 257, 340, 30-378 especially so on and so forth) is stupid crazy high. If you shoot a weatherby caliber it will almost force you to reloading or break the bank one....GLWS great guy to deal with
